    But if she starts packing her bags, we're in trouble.
    What if someone just kills her?

    I fail to see how that answers the question of what it would mean for the whole propheciesed looming conflict and the possible predictions of it's outcome, if Isca is simply killed by someone.

    Though i should specify, killed without the possibility of being simply downloaded into a new body.

    My point is that I don’t think someone could “SIMPLY” kill Isca, but they are welcome to try…. at their own expenses I suspect

    It doesn't even seem like some Darwin thing where she adapts to her opponents, she basically just is strong and picks the winning team. The second part may not even technically be a power

    what would happen if the team she switched to didn't want her and kept attacking her anyway? like if she was trapped somewhere with the hulk and he was attacking her

    Isca is a passive reality warper. Her power doesn't turn off she is blessed or cursed depending on your point of view for reality to shape its self for her to come out on top.

    Active reality warpers like Monarch or Franklin have to think about what they are changing while people like Isca and Domino don't have a choice

    See, I suspect that’s how Isca power works, at the end she won, doesn’t matter how or why.

    I doubt that is how her powers work though. It seems to me that she will be 'forced' by her abilities to always choose that path that leads to her survival/victory w/e.

    If someone stronger than her comes along she will be forced to betray her allies, and seek the path to survival. Even if that means siding with Sentinels or god knows what.

    It is a terrible curse indeed. But man what a fun character.

    We got that, but people have been wondering what would happen in case someone really wanted her dead (meaning no side switching possible), how would her powers work against someone hellbent on killing her specifically?

    Exactly. Side-switching isn’t always an option. She’s clearly able to win without switching sides as we saw when she played the games with Magik and Cable.
